As you are probably aware, there was a huge fire in Valle Crucis last week. Much was destroyed and lost, including the life of one of the residents. This tragedy has left a few county residents homeless and without basic necessities. Foggy Pine Books, in partnership with Appalachian Cookie Company and the Victorian Inn of Blocking Rock, is collecting gift cards to donate to the effected families. You may drop off any card or cash donation, in any amount, to help those suffering right now. You may also click the GoFundMe link below and donate to those in need in this way. Please consider helping out, even if you only have a couple bucks to do so. These families have lost everything. Let's show them what it means to have the support of the Boone Community. Thanks everyone!
